The Elite Boarding School in Switzerland That Costs Over $200,000 a Year



Switzerland's Institut auf dem Rosenberg is known as one of the most expensive schools in the world — though the institute itself says it's not hung up on that label. They say they’re working hard to be the best boarding school in Switzerland, rather than the most expensive one. The school, which has educated a prince and a Nobel Prize winner, is world-renowned for its facilities, high-tech campus, and top-of-the-line facilities that make living and studying at the school an elite experience. Founded in 1889, Rosenberg educates children from pre-school to high school. On-campus housing is made up of villas that sit on 24 acres of private parkland, with carefully manicured gardens that are surrounded by century-old nut trees. All the residences have cherry hardwood floors and en-suite marble bathrooms. Female and male students live separately, but unlike many other boarding schools, students are free to change boarding houses if they desire. The Rosenberg Health & Fitness Club features state-of-the-art training equipment, and the school also provides nutritional guidance, courtesy of the school’s team of expert trainers. Dining at the school can be compared to fine dining at Michelin Star restaurants around the world. The kitchen team is committed to cooking without artificial colors, flavors, or thickening agents such as wheat flour whenever possible. Ingredients are locally sourced and the production of the majority of dishes is fresh, including bases for soups and sauces, so that processed food is reduced to an absolute minimum. So, if you want your little darling to have a top-notch education, breathe clean air, and eat meals prepared by Michelin-star chefs and you have $200,000 to spare, check out Institut auf dem Rosenberg.
